Most terminals allow you to change this color via a setting or (in the case of X11 applications) resource. For instance, in my .Xdefaults I set xterm and urxvt's idea of DarkBlue to the X11 color dodgerblue: xterm*Color4: dodgerblue urxvt*color4: dodgerblue It is more sensible to change which color DarkBlue appears at this level instead of in a Vim config file which may be blown away the next time you update Vim on your computer.
